The latest update is out from Goldplat ( (GB:GDP) ).
Goldplat reported a sharp improvement in operating performance for the quarter ended 31 December 2025, with combined operating profit from its two recovery operations rising to £2.70m and profit before tax, excluding listing and head office costs, reaching £2.31m. The South African business was the main profit driver, benefiting from higher volumes, once-off batches and strong gold prices, while the Ghana operation remained profitable despite foreign-exchange losses and one-off assay-related impacts.
The board declared an interim dividend of 0.14638 pence per share and signalled an intention to assess shareholder distributions on a quarterly basis, supported by group cash of £4.7m earmarked for working capital, capex and future returns. Management is also advancing strategic initiatives including a £700,000 plant upgrade in Ghana, completion of a new recovery plant in Brazil, and a renewed push to unlock value from its South African tailings storage facility by taking greater control of permitting and technical work to enable potential processing.
In South Africa, Goldplat is leveraging the current high gold price while building longer-term security of supply by increasing its share of the by-products market and considering diversification into other precious metals and resource types. The company continues to see strong visibility of low-grade feedstock, with more than 12 months of material on site and further volumes under contract, underpinning ongoing production and margin resilience.
In Ghana, operations are being adapted to local beneficiation requirements and environmental permitting processes, with licence renewal due in May 2026 and additional investment planned to improve recoveries and environmental management. Concurrently, the group is strengthening sourcing in South America, with new agreements in place and material being routed to both Ghana and South Africa, positioning Goldplat to broaden its supply base and reinforce its niche role in the gold recovery value chain.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:GDP) stock is a Hold with a £14.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Goldplat stock, see the GB:GDP Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:GDP Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:GDP is a Neutral.
The score is driven primarily by solid balance-sheet strength and strong cash-flow generation, partially offset by declining revenue and weakening profit margins. Technically, the trend is positive but appears overextended (high RSI/Stoch), and valuation looks only fair given the recent fundamental pressure.
